January 31, 2017 – SBG Systems announced the release of a new version of the Ellipse Series, its popular product line of miniature inertial sensors.
The Ellipse is greatly improved, showing unmatched performance in attitude measurement while adding Galileo constellation to its GNSS receiver.
After thousands of Ellipse miniature inertial sensors operational on the field, SBG Systems proves again its capability of continuous innovation.
With these improvements, the Ellipse line of miniature inertial sensors strengthens its position as “best combination of innovation, performance, and reliability” while keeping the same form factor and price level.
Due in part to its small form factor and powerful performance, the Ellipse Series is a popular sensor for Unmanned Systems. It is also an affordable all-in-one solution that provides accurate attitude and position in real-time for Unmanned Systems whether they are terrestrial, aerial, or marine.
Ellipse Series Performance Upgraded
The accuracy of every Ellipse models has improved from 0.2° to 0.1° in roll and pitch. With low noise gyroscopes and new high performance accelerometers providing superior noise level. In addition, the new accelerometers tolerate very high vibration environments (up to 8g).
GNSS Navigation: Ellipse-N Operational with Galileo Satellites
The Ellipse-N model is an all-in-one inertial sensor that embeds a L1 GNSS receiver. Ellipse-N is already compatible with GPS, GLONASS and BEIDOU constellations. With the addition of GALILEO tracking, Ellipse-N benefits from more satellites, improving the signal robustness in harsh environments.
2-Year Warranty: The Most Reliable Industrial-grade Sensors
Ellipse embeds high quality sensors with a greatly improved long-term stability. These sensors feature an IP68 enclosure and are resistant to dust and water. Additionally, in order to ensure consistent behavior in every condition, each sensor is tested and calibrated. Highly robust, the Ellipse is guaranteed for 2 years. There is also an option to extend the warranty up to 5 years.
Compatibility and Availability
Thanks to a fully backward compatibility design, the new Ellipse series can be a drop-in replacement of the previous Ellipse. Thus, no specific integration action is required when it comes to mechanical, electrical and/or software integration. New Ellipse sensors are available for ordering.
